Forced To Lift Legs By UPRS Rusunawa Jatinegara, Parents Of Student Disposal Of Baby Ask For Justice Anies

JAKARTA - Amran, a resident of Kampung Pulo, a victim of eviction by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government 7 years ago, has again demanded justice for his place of residence to the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan.

Because, Amran and his family who have occupied a residential unit in Rusunawa Jatinegara Barat Tower A, 8th Floor, No. 802, RT 002/009, Kampung Melayu Village, Jatinegara, East Jakarta, is in danger of being forcibly evicted by the UPRS (one apartment management unit) Rusunawa Jatinegara Barat.

Please note that UPRS is under the Department of Public Housing and Settlement Areas of DKI Jakarta Province.

"Don't take our rights away, our grandchildren need to live," Amran said when VOI met at his residence, Friday, July 1, evening.

In fact, Amran and his family have lived in the flat since 2015 after the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government relocation program.

However, the former LMK man was actually forced to leave his residence by the UPRS because of the reason his daughter's case had surfaced.

The UPRS argued that Amran's daughter, whose initials were MS, was involved in a legal dispute over the disposal of the baby in the Ciliwung River area, Jalan Inspeksi Kampung Pulo, Kampung Melayu, Jatinegara, East Jakarta last Wednesday, June 1.

Based on MS's actions, it resulted in the forced expulsion of both MS's parents who did not know anything about their child's legal problems.

"My son (MS) is still being processed by law. Please don't burden us. We are victims of relocation, the government programmed us to live here. Now, they (UPRS) want to expel us, where do we want to live?," Amran said.

Moreover, UPRS has sent a letter terminating the rental agreement for the residential unit to Amran which was given on Monday, June 27, yesterday.

"The letter came on June 27. Then the UPRS clarified it to me on June 28. It turned out that they discussed the problem with my son (MS). The letter reads that I was ordered to get out (expelled) from here (Rusunawa)," he said.

Amran was surprised at the attitude of UPRS. Apart from the problem with his daughter, who has the initials MS, even though she is a victim of eviction by the DKI Provincial Government who is placed in Rusunawa. Moreover, at this time the effects of the pandemic are still being felt, the economic impact is still being experienced by Amran and his family.

"Our burden is very heavy, while our grandson (MS child with the initials NA (1 month)) is still in the recovery stage of healing from the Police Hospital," he explained.

The UPRS also told Amran that his family must immediately leave the rusunawa residence until the deadline of 15 July. Later, residential units will be proposed to residents whose origins are not clear.

"I hope that the governor can decide the problems for me and my family, wisely and wisely. Because the governor really wants the citizens of Jakarta to progress and make their citizens happy. We want to be happy. Don't take away our happiness as a small community," he hoped.
